2025 Gibson 1961 ES-335 Reissue - Cherry

Buckle up because this one is no joke! This gently used Custom Shop 335 is effortless to play, and can cover anything from B.B. King to Dave Grohl. Gibson Historic Custom reissues have it all-- Gibson Golden Era guitars are recreated with features faithful to specific model years, using neck and body carves 3D-scanned from vintage examples. Everything from the paper-in-oil capacitors to the specific mixture of nitrocellulose used at the time, this guitar is made exactly as it was in 1961. Careful picking up this guitar because before you know it, you're playing songs you forgot you knew--as the guitar draws you in like a siren. One of the best things about this guitar specifically is the upper register of the fretboard is as effortless as the rest of the guitar. No awkward intonation issues, no dead frets--perfect for flying rock and roll solos or complex jazz chords.
